How much more do we need ?
Money, power and greed
Possessions steal your soul, ooh.

Why are we so blind ?
An arrogant thoughtless kind
We use our bodies and waste our time, ooh.

Social difficulties, desperate politics
Disorders of the mind, ooh.

Life is a drag and it's too serious
I'm so much in love but I'm too serious
The world is so sick and I'm delirious
Morality bores me, it's so serious
No minds of our own and it's too serious
Governments lie and it's so curious.

Too serious, too serious, too serious.

Tell you what we need
We need less authority
A lot more honesty, ooh.

I've been preached to all my life
I've listened till I could cry
But I don't need anymore, ooh.

Now we must make a stand
To fight for the spirit in man
The future is in our hands, ooh.

But life is a drag and it's too serious
I'm so much in love that I'm delirious
Life is so strange and it's mysterious
No minds of our own and it's too serious
Morality bores me, it's so serious
Governments lie and it's so curious.
